Hugh Young expects stock markets to underperform
My
thanks to a subscriber for this Bloomberg
video interview with Hugh Young, and also his short comment
"His innate conservatism comes through"
David Fuller's view Yes it does. Consequently, Hugh Young tends to underperform when stock markets are on a roll. In contrast, he loses less money when markets turn down, and performs well during recoveries from depressed conditions.
Tactically, I would not chase shares that are surging above their rising 200-day MAs. Also, this environment might provide an opportunity to lighten positions that you may not wish to hold during another medium-term downturn which will eventually follow.
